lol no, this is not going to be a significant dollar amount event like hurricane michael or Ian.
The coastal damage is from surge, which has nothing to do with the homeowners market.

Exactly. It's not like Florida is the only place in the country that gets damage. If ocean waters continue to rise you'll see more severe Hurricanes hitting up into NYC, New Jersey, all the way up through New England.

it'll hurt the wind market, but not fire.

Doesn't even have to be a Hurricane. Noreasters are almost essentially hurricanes anyway. And again, we're already seeing hurricanes make it further north before deteriorating.

I’m 36 and have lived in two of these states plus Alabama. Tornados have always been a thing. Sure it’s picked up a little on random years but this isn’t new.
The frequency is new. My parents live in Western Kentucky and they've had more close calls for tornadoes in the last 5 years than they did the previous 30 years. It's probably only a matter of time.
My point to all of this is that it's not just the Gulf Coast that has disasters. Outside of maybe the upper midwest, you name the start, I'll name the disaster they'll probably have at least in the next 5 - 10 years.

Would help if they were actually proactive in controlled burns and other methods to actually remedy the situation. They don’t and it happens all the time and they still wonder why.
Which you know they will never allow. I completely agree. Florida had bad wildfires back in the 90s (especially 1998) and the early and mid 2000's. You hardly hear about wildfires in Florida anymore because of the controlled burns. But the environmental wackos in California will never allow controlled burns and you know it.

If there was significant sea level rise the way these alarmists talk about, you wouldn't be able to get a loan on anything in Miami or NY.
There is significant sea level lowering in many spots along the West coast and in northern European countries.
It all depends on what the land under your feet is doing.

I'll keep talking thank you very much, especially since there are posters like you who obviously have no clue what they are talking about. And to re-emphasize, it was a typo. I mean the rise in temperatures for ocean waters, not ocean water level. I was simply typing too fast.

Famous last words but just how high can my wind insurance possibly get. It already went up x6 in the past 10 years.

To get back on track, I don't see this impacting the Gulf Coast insurance market really much at all. If anything this is more of a flood event than a wind event which is federal anyway. And it missed almost all the major population centers.

You need to do a little more research into practically everything you said in your two posts.

The Gulf nowadays is like bath water. The Gulf near Tampa can easily get to 90 degrees. When I first moved to Florida the Gulf would get warm in the summer but not 90 degree warm. Probably more around 85-88.
Nope
Even the real alarmists say the average water temp is only up 1-2 degrees at most over last 50 years

Why can't we build stuff like the Ike Dike instead of send $50 billion to Ukraine?!
Some people want problems to use such problems to their benefit and could not give a damn about solving them.

Where is this ocean water temperature data you speak of...link please?
And the ocean temperature is directly linked to ocean volume thus sea level rise or fall because seawater density is a function of temperature. Water sees it max density around 40 degrees F.

They will just hit the reinsurance, which will increase their rates, then they will increase your rates.

I don't believe those are direct measurements either.
The are calculated values based on sea level rise measurements and they assume the X and Y coordinates are static.

People will still move to Florida in droves regardless, and the majority of them aren’t wealthy enough to be self-insured. So the demand for insurance companies will remain the same

Helene is plenty destructive, but it's not is the same ballpark with Katrina and Harvey, each of which had over $150,000,000,000 in damages

Can you name an area in the country free of natural disasters?
Should we give up on the west coast and Hawaii because of the fires?
